Carlisle and the Tariff.

Speaker Carlisle contributes an in
teresting article on the tariff and rev.
enue reduction to the forthcoming
number Of the F'Or:m The vital part
OF his argument on the reduction Of
impost duties is in the following para
graph:
The statement constantly made that
the Democratic party, if it had the
power, would at once reduce the rates
of duty to such degree us to give the
products Of foreign labor an advan-
tage in our own markets, is as ground
less as the numerous other false predic-
tons with which the people were de-
luded Tor twenty years by Republican
orators and newspapers, and Eetit has
been successfully used to alarm the
laboring classes and prevent them
from opposing system of taxation
which, while it does not increase the
amount OF their wages, great ! dimin.
ishes their purchase power. Every
well informed man knows that any av
erage rate of taxation upon upon i'm
ported goods which would enable The
government to realize the amount o.
revenue it will be compelled to raist
from that source would much more
than compensate for the difference be
tween the cost OF labor here and il
other manufacturing countries

The Missouri local option law
which was adopted by the last session
of the Legislature as a compromise
with the ultra PrOhibitionists has
been declared unconstitutional by
the Circuit Court OF Grundy county.
While this decision is subject to re-
versal by higher court it for the
present suspends the operation OF the
law in the nineteen counties which
voted no license since the passenger
OF the art The difficulty Of reconcil-
ing the views Of Legislatures and
courts seems to be as great in matters
pertaining to liquor legislstions as
any other The courts have the last
word on the subject and when they
reach final decision there is moth
my to he done but To acqniesce or
pass some legislation on the subject
that ~ constitutional beyond doubt.
